So (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and
the resolution, as amended, was agreed to.
The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
[[Page H569]]
A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
Stated for:
Mr. LARSON of Connecticut. Mr. Speaker, on February 15, 2013, I was
not present for rollcall vote 45. If I had been present for this vote,
I would have voted ``yea.''
personal explanation
Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably absent in the House
Chamber for one vote on February 13, 2013 and votes today. I would like
the record to show that had I been present, I would have voted ``yea''
on rollcall vote 40, ``nay'' on rollcall votes 43 and 44, and ``yea''
on rollcall vote 45.
personal explanation
Ms. SPEIER. Mr. Speaker, I was unfortunately unable to cast a vote on
rollcall No. 44 and rollcall No. 45 on February 15, 2013. On rollcall
No. 44 I would have voted ``nay.'' H.R. 273 would extend the current
pay freeze for federal workers by another nine months. Continued
freezes, budget cuts to agencies, and ideological attacks on federal
workers undermine the federal government's ability to recruit and hire
a talented and high-skilled workforce while bringing us no closer to a
responsible approach to deficit reduction. The men and women who have
dedicated their careers to public service already have made sacrifices
in pay and benefits totaling more than $100 billion to help reduce our
nation's debt. On rollcall No. 45, H. Res. 65 condemning the Government
of North Korea for its flagrant and repeated violations of multiple
United Nations Security Council resolutions, for its repeated
provocations that threaten international peace and stability, and for
its February 12, 2013, test of a nuclear device, I would have voted
``yea.''
